Giacometti – exhibition double

Hamburg's Kunsthalle gallery is famed for its outstanding art exhibitions and its current show 'Giacometti. The Playing Fields', on display until 19 May 2013, is no exception. Meanwhile, the Bucerius Art Forum is hosting an exhibition entitled 'Alberto Giacometti. Encounters' until 20 May 2013. Both pay tribute to the Swiss artist by putting his drawings and sculptures in the spotlight.

As good as it is for art Hamburg still has plenty more on offer, of course, including the famous Hamburg fish market, the Reeperbahn and HafenCity, an ultra-modern residential and business district.
